Synopsis

There is a new hungry generation of Christian women who believe they have barely scratched the surface of their potential and who are looking for help to become better leaders who can contribute to the healing and restoration of our country, and who can make a difference in our world.

They are pleading for woman leaders who have gone before them, who are led by God’s spirit, to come forward and serve as their mentors and models.

Finally, just such a group of experienced women have been assembled. It’s a group of eight successful, godly Canadian women, each of whom is a distinguished leader in her field, who are willing to share the unique story and lessons of their journey told with utmost authenticity and integrity so that others might be inspired and edified.

About this title

Review:

"What an inspiring collection of stories from eight uniquely called and gifted leaders! Each one shows us how God empowers women to lead others in the right direction." -Liz Curtis Higgs, best-selling author of The Girl's Still Got It "I'm not sure how well, if at all, the eight women whose voices and stories make up this volume know each other, but together they form a remarkable sisterhood. Their stories of hard-won wisdom, persevering faith, restoring grace, and-always-the God who wastes nothing are riveting, invigorating, poignant and, sometimes, very funny. This book is for anyone-man or woman-who is or is becoming a leader and who needs bread for the journey: you just stumbled on a whole bakery." -Mark Buchanan, author of The Rest of God "As a television host and interviewer I've read scores of books and interviewed scores of authors on leadership. Generally they are prescriptive and generic, restating the obvious. This is not the case with Faith, Life and Leadership. The great appeal of the book is that the various authors share lessons learned from real-life experiences, some of them tragic. There are more tears than theories. I found the read refreshingly compelling, uplifting and inspiring. Not your typical leadership book. It's a keeper." -Jim Cantelon, author and host of Jim Cantelon Today "Christian leadership is an imperative in today's world. The faith journeys of the accomplished women who tell their stories in this book are excellent examples of such leadership and deserve our full attention. Their insights into leadership are well worth reading and taking to heart." -Preston Manning, founder and president of the Manning Centre "Faith, Life and Leadership tells the true stories of eight extraordinary Canadian women who said 'Yes' to fulfilling their calling and purpose. With honesty, biblical truth and powerful illustrations, the authors reveal their journeys to leadership-the obstacles faced and the lessons learned. This book will inspire and encourage you, but it will also challenge you to live up to your highest potential as a woman of God. I highly recommend it." -Carol Kent, international speaker and author of Speak Up with Confidence
